Description from the seller
Seiko Quartz Day-Date 5Y23-8A11 Vintage 38mm White Dial Stainless Steel Japan
Offered here is a classic Seiko Quartz wristwatch with a clean white dial, bold Arabic numerals, and a practical day-date display at 3 o’clock. It is a highly wearable, understated Seiko design—made for daily use and built around Seiko’s dependable quartz engineering.
This watch presents very well on the wrist with its balanced 38 mm case size and original Seiko-style stainless steel bracelet. The dial layout is especially attractive for collectors who appreciate legibility and restrained vintage Japanese design.

A short story for collectors
This is the type of Seiko that represents why vintage Japanese watches are so widely collected in Europe: practical day-date functionality, clear typography, and a straightforward design language that still feels modern. It is an honest daily-wear vintage Seiko—simple, legible, and built to be used.
